VERITAS Storage Foundation for DB2 maintains a repository that stores the pertinent information needed to display configuration information. This repository is located at /etc/vx/DB2.$DB2INSTANCE.$DB2DATABASE. When the database configuration changes, the information stored in the repository may not be up-to-date. You can resynchronize the repository, if needed. You can also rescan, or refresh, instances and tablespaces to make sure system information is up-to-date.

The GUI also allows you to check and save the configuration of each DB2 instance on your system. Information on all volumes, file systems and their types, and disk groups can be displayed.
